6.10

These seven sages are called true śramaṇas. There are two kinds of śramaṇa: first, simply called 'śramaṇa,' which is the cause; second, 'śramaṇatā,' which is the fruit. Or, there are eighty-nine śramaṇas, namely the eight patiences of seeing the truths and the eighty-one unhindered [paths] of cultivation. Regarding śramaṇatā, there are also eighty-nine, namely the eight wisdoms of seeing the truths and the eighty-one liberations of cultivation. Regarding śramaṇatā, there are further two kinds: first, conditioned fruits, which are eighty-nine conditioned fruits; second, unconditioned fruits, which are eighty-nine unconditioned fruits. This is in terms of wisdom and severing: explaining the eighty-nine conditioned fruits in terms of the virtue of wisdom, and explaining the eighty-nine unconditioned fruits in terms of the virtue of severing.
